Hailing from Dublin, Ireland, Sheamus brings to the ring a ferocious offensive style that harkens to his noble and heroic Celtic ancestors. Whether by upbringing or by birthright, this modern-day Celtic Warrior was fated for combat, and when he emerged in ECW in 2009, he quickly made WWE his battleground.
After journeying from The Land of the Extreme to Monday Night Raw in October 2009, the aptly named "Great White" ravenously sunk his teeth into the competition, engaging in a high-profile rivalry with John Cena in pursuit of the WWE Championship. At WWE TLC, the ginger-headed juggernaut clashed with the Cenation leader in a pine-splintering Tables Match and defeated Cena to become the first-ever Irish-born WWE Champion.
Not resting on his laurels following a momentous victory over one of the most decorated WWE Superstars in history, The Celtic Warrior continued to collect accolades, winning the 2010 King of the Ring and capturing the illustrious United States Championship in March of that year. After winning the 2012 Royal Rumble, Sheamus paved his Road to WrestleMania and defeated World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan in a record-setting 18 seconds to win the title.
Although Sheamus thrived off his ability to raise the ire of the WWE Universe by pummeling their heroes--namely Cena, Triple H and Randy Orton--the boos directed at him were eventually replaced by thunderous cheers after he was drafted to SmackDown in 2011. As one of the most dominant and feared ring warriors competing on the blue brand, Sheamus was lauded when he willfully and courageously stood in the path of the rampaging Mark Henry in the weeks leading up to SummerSlam 2011.
